UAS Labs is a proud supporter and employer of veterans.

In support of veterans, UAS Labs served as a sponsor for the W.A.V.E. (Wisconsin Association of Veteran Employers) Gala. All Veterans employed at UAS Labs’ fermentation facility in Madison, Wisconsin were offered to attend the gala free of charge. At the gala, soldiers and their families enjoyed a night of dining, cocktails, music and dancing.

A great big thank you to UAS Labs, for employing past and present soldiers and providing this opportunity!

About the W.A.V.E. Organization

Mission – To build a consortium that celebrates, collaborates, and communicates among local organizations that support veterans and their families.

Background – Wisconsin Association of Veteran Employers (WAVE) was created in 2017 to be a catalyst in coordinating local employer resources to support veterans and their families. WAVE Partners, American Family Insurance, CUNA Mutual Group, WPS Health Solutions, Covance Laboratories, Randstad Technologies, and more than a dozen non-profit organizations are working to build a consortium that celebrates, collaborates, and communicates among Wisconsin organizations that support veterans and their families; share best practices on recruiting, hiring, & retaining our veterans; and provide employers with ideas on how to begin and/or strengthen their own veteran business resource groups.

WAVE holds quarterly training sessions with the non-profits on topics the non-profits bring up. The meetings are held in the Education Center at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum at 30 W. Mifflin St. on Capitol Square at 7:30 AM. Follow this page to learn more about the next quarterly meeting, we invite you to join us.
